Blackpink’s Lisa continues her reign of record-breaking achievements as she surpasses 100 million followers on Instagram.
At 26, she becomes the first K-pop artist and female Asian artist to reach this remarkable milestone, solidifying her trailblazing status in the industry.
In a festive gesture, Lisa treated her fans, known as Blinks, to a heartwarming rendition of Britney Spears’ 2000 hit “My Only Wish (This Year)” on her YouTube channel, Lilifilm Official. The visually stunning music video, set against the enchanting landscapes of France, aimed to spread joy among her global fanbase.
Recognizing Lisa’s exceptional impact, Guinness World Records crowned her the greatest K-pop artist of 2023. Her accolades include being the first solo K-pop winner at both the MTV Video Music Awards and the MTV Europe Music Awards. Additionally, she is the first female K-pop solo artist to surpass one billion Spotify streams with the song “Money.”
In 2023, Lisa’s solo track “Lalisa” made history as the first K-pop song by a solo artist to reach one billion streams on Spotify. The music video for “Lalisa” holds the record for the most-viewed video from a solo artist in the first 24 hours, amassing an impressive 73.6 million views.
Beyond her solo career, Blackpink achieved the title of the most-streamed female group on Spotify in 2023.
In a parallel development, Lisa’s bandmate Jennie announced the establishment of her new agency, Odd Atelier (OA), for her solo career. Jennie, the only artist under OA, expressed excitement for her solo journey in 2024 while extending gratitude for the love and support received.
As Blackpink members continue their individual and group endeavors, the group renewed its exclusive contract with YG Entertainment for group activities in early December.
